According to these, empires will fall, the "Beast" will be destroyed and Christ will rule a new Jerusalem. With an introduction by Will Self.

God is preparing a spiritual tsunami to sweep the nations and reclaim our culture for Christ, says author Johnny Enlow. He describes seven culture-shaping areas of influence over each society--media, government, education, economy, family, religion, and celebration (arts and entertainment)--that are the keys to taking a nation for the kingdom of God. The purpose of this book is to draw the church's attention to these areas; help each individual determine his or her specific assignment in this mission; and then to offer insight into the nature of the battles involved in this "spiritual tsunami," as the author calls it. Many Christians do not grasp that God's favor for us to succeed is already upon us and is part of His end-time strategy to establish Jesus as Ruler of the Nations before His return. Readers will come to understand that this favor is divinely strategic and corresponds to the place of each person's ministry assignment. Many have a spiritual poverty vision and poor eschatology, two factors that have robbed us of our blessing and caused us to fail to reclaim cultural influences for Christ. The book is laid out to address these two misunderstandings, with the first several chapters specifically aimed at correcting lack of vision and misguided understanding of the end times. Each chapter that follows provides intensive, detailed study of each "mountain" of influence, how it will be taken and by whom, and what resistance will be encountered by individuals assigned to claim this mountain.

The seven seals of the Book of Revelation offer a warning to spiritual seekers of the many spectacular events that are coming upon the world in the future. From the first seal that cautions religious deception and persecution to the next six seals that warn of war, famine, pestilence, tribulation and martyrdom, signs in the heavens, and a devastating earthquake, the seven seals have always held mystery. Warnette Patterson has been the pastor of a small North Carolina congregation for the past twelve years and has answered her calling by Jesus to write and educate others so they may know Jesus in His compassion and suffering for us. As she shares the good news of the gospel of Jesus Christ coupled with many scriptural references, she delves into the meaning of the seven seals and details the ways Jesus wants us to apply the significance of the seals to our daily lives. The kingdom of God is not in word, but in power. The Book with the Seven Seals both reinforces and explains the conditions that must first occur before God brings His final judgment upon the world.

“There will be a time, Deliverance," Coy said, "when you will call on me. You will beg for me to stay, and I will tell you to go away.” When faced with the near impossible, what can a half-blood witch do but roll up her sleeves and dig in with her heels?

The clues are stacking up, creating more questions than answers, and the clock continues to tick, counting down to Doom’s day. But a haunting tip from Coy sends Deliverance and the rest of the group to Washington, D.C. to visit the Smithsonian—only one issue, Coy provided Pascale with the same tidbit of information, making the race for the 3rd Seal a competition of sorts. The 1st and 2nd Seals remain open, and the hunt for the 3rd Seal takes flight. Dive deep—but beware. The pages are laced with lust and laughter, shadows and swearing—a relentless ride through the twisted corridors of magic and malice. 🌒🔮💀

Many Christians think of end times prophecy as a gigantic, intimidating puzzle -- difficult to piece together and impossible to figure out. But every puzzle can be solved if you approach it the right way. Paul Benware compares prophecy to a picture puzzle. Putting the edge pieces together first builds the 'framework' that makes it easier to fit the other pieces in their place. According to Benware, the framework for eschatology is the biblical covenants. He begins his comprehensive survey by explaining the major covenants. Then he discusses several different interpretations of end times prophecy. Benware digs into the details of the Rapture, the Great Tribulation, the judgements and resurrections, and the millennial kingdom. But he also adds a unique, personal element to the study, answering questions as: -Why study bible prophecy? -What difference does it make if I'm premillenial or amillenial? If what the Bible says about the future puzzles you, Understanding End Times Prophecy will help you put together the pieces and see the big picture.

The Inside Story of America's Ultimate Warriors When Osama bin Laden was assassinated, the entire world was fascinated by the men who had completed the seemingly impossible mission that had dogged the U.S. government for over a decade. SEAL Team 6 became synonymous with heroism, duty, and justice. Only a handful of the elite men who make up the SEALs, the US Navy's best and bravest, survive the legendary and grueling selection process that leads to becoming a member of Team 6, a group so classified it technically does not even exist. There are no better warriors on Earth. Don Mann knows what it takes to be a brother in this ultra-selective fraternity. As a member of Seal Team Six for over eight years and a SEAL for over seventeen years, he worked in countless covert operations, operating from land, sea, and air, and facing shootings, decapitations, and stabbings. He was captured by the enemy and lived to tell the tale, and he participated in highly classified missions all over the globe, including Somalia, Panama, El Salvador, Colombia, Afghanistan, and Iraq. As a coordinator for several civilian SEAL training programs, and as a former Training Officer of SEAL Team Six, he was directly responsible for shaping the bodies and minds of SEALs who carried out the assassination of Osama bin Laden. But to become a SEAL, Mann had to overcome his own troubled childhood and push his body to its breaking point -- and beyond. Inside Seal Team 6 is a high octane narrative of physical and mental toughness, giving unprecedented insight to the inner workings of the training and secret missions of the world's most respected and feared combat unit.
